Gold Calacatta marble, a medium that boasts dramatic veining in shades akin to the apartment's own color palette, wraps a 6-foot island. "This island was to feel more furniture-like because you see it from the living room," says Lindsay. "I wanted it to be the statement of the kitchen."

A contemporary play on the classic farmhouse form, a stainless steel apron-front sink boasts clean, simple lines that stand in contrast to the articulated faucet, which pivots to accommodate cleaning tasks large and small.

The island front, clad in frosted-glass subway tile, references other linear details sprinkled throughout the apartment's open living space. "Pairing tile with the marble top lends more visual interest and texture," says Lindsay.

The bubble shape of the Caviar Cluster Chandelier, designed by Laura Kirar, continues a subtle sea life and ocean theme. "I've been in love with this light fixture for a year and a half now," says Lindsay, who knew the design ideally suited this particular space.

Handcrafted by HGTV Urban Oasis contractor Bruce Harwood, glass panels tie back to the kitchen subway tile. "This is a great non-obtrusive texture to break up that big wall," adds Lindsay. "And it helps carry on the color variation of white-dark, white-dark."
